Hofbräuhaus Through the Generations

Couldn't resist sharing this old photo of my Grandpa Joe (on the right) during his visit to the Munich Hofbräuhaus sometime in the early 1950s. Not sure who the woman between them is--theHofbräuhaus Hottie--but I do know the fellow on the left is a friend and fellow work colleague (love the bow-tie!). How great is this photo? Only the best.

Beer--it brings families together.

I'm one of those people who live for this sort of full circle of life thing. My grandfather and I have led somewhat parallel lives, separated by 6 decades, during our time in Germany. I feel a connection to him--and once again thank my lucky stars for having the opportunity to experience all of this.
